Arthur Sulzberger Jr.: The New York Times Is Not Sinking

As Adweek points out, a question and answer session doesn’t always bring out the best in us. Such was the case during The New York Times’ annual meeting, which began with Arthur Sulzberger Jr. talking about how great the company was doing, and ended with this amusing moment:

Perhaps most pressing was this question: Is the New York Times literally sinking?
